Retirement Countdown – Are you ready?

Retirement Countdown - Are you ready?

We invite you to join us for our upcoming complimentary workshop we call the “Lunch & Learn” series. Each month we will be introducing new and interesting topics.

This event took place at the Thornhill Golf & Country Club on Monday, January 26th between 12:00 and 1:30pm.

Do you have a dream of what retirement will look like? How close are you to getting to your retirement? Do you know what your retirement will look like? Saving money for retirement is only half the battle. True retirement success incorporates both money and lifestyle.

Transitioning from working life to retirement takes careful planning. Give yourself time to prepare. Let us help you get organized.

We covered:

  • What tax benefits can I take advantage of when I retire?
  • What health benefits will I lose in retirement?
  • How do I have to adjust my portfolio in retirement?
  • Should market trends play a part as to when I should retire?
  • Will I live off my assets or will I outlive my assets?
  • Am I ready to retire?
